Instructions
To roast the beets:
- Preheat oven to 425. Wash and dry beets, making sure to rub off any excess dirt. Cut off any stems. Place the beets on individual squares of foil. Drizzle each beet with a little olive oil and sprinkle with a little sea salt. Tightly wrap the beets in the foil and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 50-60 minutes, checking the beets with a fork to test for tenderness. When you can easily slice the beets, they are ready.
To assemble the salad:
- Arrange arugula or watercress greens on a platter.
- Cut the beets into large chunks and place on top of the greens.
- Add crumbled goat cheese to the top.
- Chop pecans or any nuts you like and sprinkle on top.
- Lightly drizzle the top of the salad with balsamic vinegar and a little olive oil. Sprinkle with sea salt and pepper. Enjoy!
